As I think I said earlier, every single Fifa release in living memory seems to poliarise opinion into two camps. Its sometimes hard to believe people are talking about the same game when you read some of the comments.

just did everything there is possible to do in the game. one thing i found really annoying was that you can't change the difficulty level because apart from the global challenges (get to that later) the game is tooo easy, i mean i won the world cup and won every game like 7-0 or 8-0! the global challenges were a good idea but the problem is that some are too hard and some are too easy. In some challenges I just could not beat the keeper, it was like he was superman or something and in other challenges i would score almost every time I went forward!
Saying all that though, the game does play well for a fifa title and if they could balance difficulty well then they would prob have a very good football title. Also was glad to see that they got rid of the "heaven" lighting and "action man" plastic players. lol!
Overall score: 7/10

I've been hearing a load of stuff over the GameFAQ forum about this not actually running in 720p, can anyone here explain if this is the case?
Oh and I've heard something about changing the difficulty by using the left and right triggers while setting up the match or something, although I can't be sure. However you can't change difficulty of a World Cup you've already started.

Certainly looks to be 720p to me....?
Overall I'm enjoying it.... I'd class myself as a casual football game player, PES etc are too hardcore for me, Fifa is how I like it, nice and simple.
There is however some shameless ****ing bugs in it, does leave a bad taste in your mouth after parting with ?45! And knowing that there's zero chance of EA patching it!

Originally posted by cavalcadeThere's no general option, but when you create a new tournament at the point of creation you can set difficulty level, match length etc... In terms of setting it for the scenarios and the like, I can't remember. Perhaps they scale in difficulty as you get near the end of the 40. I don't remember seeing an option...
This is the first FIFA game I've bought since RTWC 1998 and, overall, I think it's OK. I've also rented a few FIFA games since 1998 and it appears that they're very slowly moving in the right direction. On the other hand, 8 years on, I'm surprised that there are still sweet spots and an 'on rails' feeling that I just don't get from PES (or SNES ISS, N64 ISS, PS1 PES etc). I like the presentation, though, and in the absence of a PES game for the 360 I'd say it's not a bad option if you're looking for a football game.

OK EA listen up. Feel free to use this algorithm in your next FIFA game:
IF team1score > team2score THEN
play team 1's victory sequence
ELSE IF team2score > team1score THEN
play team 2's victory sequence
ELSE
play draw video
END IF
I've never seen a team so miserable after winning 3-1! And as for the losers, they were over the moon!
